Does anyone know what brand of vehicle the convertible top was used or modified for for the 1980"s Avanti's. Just looking for info thinking of making an Avanti convertible?

The 1987 to 1989 convertibles were a custom design. They first tried a Chevy Cavilier top, but that did not work well, so a Michigan prototyping company custom built the tops.Lew Schucart
